We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Physician
Support Systems, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficiency)
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1995. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Physician Support Systems, Inc.
and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1994 and 1995 and the results of their

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993, 1994 AND 1995
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
a. Description of the Business -- Physician Support Systems, Inc. (a
Delaware corporation) and Subsidiary (the 'Company' or 'PSS') are engaged in the
business of providing business management services to primarily hospital-
affiliated physicians.
b. Business Combination -- On August 12, 1993 (effective August 1, 1993),
the Company acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common stock of Spring
Anesthesia Group, Inc. ('Spring') for approximately $8,533,000, including
approximately $3,033,000 in cash and a $5,500,000 subordinated note. This
acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and,
accordingly, the net assets acquired were recorded at their fair values on the
effective date of acquisition. Results of operations for Spring from the
effective date of acquisition through December 31, 1993 are included in the
Company's consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31,
1993. The excess purchase price over fair value of net assets acquired of
approximately $5,756,000 is being amortized on the straight-line method over 20
years.
c. Pro Forma Balance Sheet -- The December 31, 1995 pro forma balance sheet
gives effect to the sale of shares of common stock in the Company's initial
public offering which was completed on February 12, 1996 and the simultaneous
acquisition of the Acquired Businesses, repayment of short and long-term debt
and redemption of preferred stock (see Note 12).
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. Principles of Consolidation -- The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Spring. All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
b. Use of Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
c. Revenue Recognition -- The Company estimates fees that will be invoiced
upon collection of physician accounts receivable and recognizes such revenues
when substantially all services to be performed by the Company have been
completed. Accounts receivable -- unbilled, represents amounts recognized for
services rendered but not yet invoiced and is based on the Company's estimate of
the fees that will be collected from clients when patient accounts are
collected. This estimate is calculated by applying the Company's management fee
percentage to an estimate of the clients' collections that will be achieved on
amounts billed to patients and their insurers. The Company revises its estimate
of its unbilled accounts receivable each month based on its clients' billing and
collection information for that month. The Company provides for additional costs
necessary to complete the collection process.
Accounts receivable primarily represents amounts invoiced to clients. The
Company provided $35,000, $63,203 and $155,000 for doubtful accounts in the
years ended December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively, and wrote off $-0-,
$63,203 and $-0- against its allowance for doubtful accounts in the years ended
December 31, 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively. Also included in accounts
receivable at December 31, 1995 are reimbursements for professional fees
incurred in connection with a proposed business transaction.
d. Cash and Cash Equivalents -- The Company considers its highly liquid
overnight investments to be cash equivalents.

PHYSICIAN SUPPORT SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (Continued)
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993, 1994 AND 1995
e. Cash in Escrow -- The Company holds cash collected on behalf of its
physician customers in escrow and remits amounts due to physicians weekly.
Approximately $2,178,600 and $2,875,258 of cash in escrow was offset against
amounts due to physicians on the Company's balance sheet at December 31, 1994
and 1995, respectively.
f. Property and Equipment -- Depreciation and amortization are computed on
a straight-line basis over the shorter of estimated useful lives of the assets
or lease terms.
g. Intangible Assets -- Amortization is computed on a straight-line basis
over estimated useful lives of the assets. From time to time the Company
compares the carrying value of its goodwill to an estimate of the Company's fair
value in order to evaluate the reasonableness of the carrying value and
remaining amortization period of the goodwill. Fair value is computed using
projections of future cash flows. There was no effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations from the adoption of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121, 'Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets.'
h. Income Taxes -- The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ('SFAS') No. 109, 'Accounting for
Income Taxes,' which requires an asset and liability approach to accounting for
income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually
for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and
liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future,
based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the
differences are expected to affect taxable income. Income taxes/benefit is the
tax payable/receivable for the period plus or minus the change during the period
in deferred income tax assets and liabilities.
i. Net (Loss) Per Share -- Net (loss) per common share is calculated using
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each of the
periods retroactively restated to give effect to the 1,400-for-one stock split
(see Note 12).
j. Reclassifications -- Certain reclassifications have been made in the
1994 financial statements to conform to the 1995 presentation.

The loan agreement between the Company and the bank (the 'Bank Agreement')
and certain of the subordinated notes had covenants which restricted the payment
of dividends on common stock and provided that various financial limits and
ratios be maintained. In addition, the Bank Agreement required an annual
prepayment of the fixed rate note equal to 50 percent of the Company's cash flow
as defined.
The bank fixed rate note was secured by all assets of the Company. In
addition, the stockholders pledged their shares of common stock to the bank as
additional collateral.
The bank's national commercial rate was 8.5% at December 31, 1995.
On February 15, 1996, the Company repaid all amounts outstanding under the
bank fixed note, bank term notes and subordinated notes except for the Spring
acquisition subordinated note (see Note 12).
During the year ended December 31, 1993, the interest rate on the Spring
acquisition subordinated note was negotiated from 8% to 7.6%.

Such reserve was an estimate of the costs of consolidating operations of the
Spring billing offices into one new location in a lower cost area and modifying
the operating approach to include elements of the PSS methodology. The Company
classifies the portion of this reserve expected to be disbursed within the next
twelve months as a current liability.

9. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Spring provides pension benefits to eligible employees under a
noncontributory defined benefit pension plan. Benefits are earned on the basis
of credited service and employees' highest five consecutive plan years' average
compensation. The Plan was frozen effective July 1, 1993. Accordingly, no
further benefits accrue to eligible employees after July 1, 1993, the
accumulated benefit obligation becomes equal to the projected benefit obligation
as of that date, and all benefits become vested as of that date. The Company
makes contributions to the plan as necessary to satisfy the minimum funding
requirements of ERISA.
The following table summarizes the significant assumptions used in
determining the pension obligations as of December 31, 1994 and 1995:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Discount rate -- pre-retirement............................................... 7.0%
Discount rate -- post-retirement.............................................. 5.0
Expected long-term rate of return on assets................................... 7.0

Assets of the plan consist primarily of investments in stocks and corporate
and government bonds.

11. REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK
On August 30, 1991, the Company sold 2,000 shares of 10% Preferred Stock,
Series A (the 'Series A Stock') and 2,000 shares of 10% Preferred Stock, Series
B (the 'Series B Stock') (together, the '10% Preferred Stock'), stated value
$500 per share, for $2,000,000. On February 28, 1994, February 28, 1995 and
August 31, 1995, the Company issued stock dividends of 120 shares, 127.2 shares
and 134.832 shares, respectively, of 10% Preferred Stock, Series A and 120
shares, 127.2 shares and 134.832 shares, respectively, of 10% Preferred Stock,
Series B in lieu of cash dividends. On December 21, 1995, the Company sold 1,100
shares of 10% Redeemable Preferred Stock, Series A, stated value $500 per share,
for $550,000.
The Series A Stock dividends were cumulative and payable semiannually. If
the Company were to merge into or consolidate with an entity such that at least
a majority of the common stock of the surviving entity was not held by the
common stockholders of record as of August 30, 1991, unpaid dividends would then
accrue at the rate of 12 percent per annum from the latest dividend date. If the
Company were to fail to pay dividends when due, the holders of Series A Stock
would receive in lieu of cash dividends additional shares of preferred stock
with a face amount equal to the amount of unpaid cash dividends, at the rate of
12 percent per annum, having identical terms to Series A Stock.
The Series A Stock had no voting rights except that the Company could not
change the powers, preferences or rights of the 10% Preferred Stock or issue
securities senior to the 10% Preferred Stock without the approval of a majority
of the holders of the 10% Preferred Stock.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993, 1994 AND 1995
The Company was required to redeem all outstanding shares of Series A Stock
on the earlier of August 31, 1998 or the date on which 60 percent of the
Company's common stock was first held by persons other than the common
stockholders of record as of August 30, 1991. The Series A Stock was to be
redeemed at its stated value plus an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid
dividends (whether or not declared) to the date of redemption. The Company was
able at any time prior to August 31, 1998 to redeem all, or any number less than
all, of the outstanding shares of Series A Stock at their stated value plus an
amount equal to all accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not declared) to
the date of redemption.
Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of
Series A Stock were entitled to receive their pro rata share of any payment or
distribution before any such payment or distribution was made on any common
stock or on any other preferred stock issued but not approved by a majority of
the holders of 10% Preferred Stock.
The Series B Stock was identical to the Series A Stock except that the
Series B Stock was exchangeable in whole or in part, at the option of the
Company, into 10% Senior Subordinated Notes on any dividend date subsequent to
December 31, 1994, provided the Company had paid all dividends accrued to the
date of such exchange.
On February 15, 1996, the Company redeemed all outstanding shares of
preferred stock (see Note 12).
12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
a. Stock Split -- On February 12, 1996, the Company authorized the issuance
of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, increased the number of
authorized shares of common stock from 5,000 to 100,000,000, changed the par
value of the common stock from $.01 to $.001 per share and effected a
1,400-for-one stock split. All numbers of common shares and per share data in
the accompanying financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to effect
the stock split.
b. Sale of Common Shares -- On February 12, 1996, the Company sold
4,025,000 shares of common stock for $12 per share in its initial public
offering. The net proceeds of such offering, of approximately $43,684,000 were
used to repay all outstanding short and long-term debt except for the Spring
acquisition subordinated note, redeem all outstanding shares of preferred stock
and acquire three businesses (North Coast Health Care Management Group (which
consisted of three affiliated companies, 'NCHC Group'), Medical Management
Support Inc. ('MMS') and Data Processing Systems, Inc., ('DPS') (together, the
'Acquired Businesses')) currently providing business management services to
physicians.
c. Business Combinations -- On February 15, 1996, the Company acquired 100
percent of the outstanding common stock and substantially all of the assets and
liabilities of the Companies that made up the NCHC Group and substantially all
the assets and liabilities of MMS and DPS for an aggregate of approximately
$12,255,000 in cash deferred payments and related transaction expenses. All of
these acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting,
and, accordingly, the net assets acquired were recorded at their fair values on
the date of acquisition. Excess purchase price over fair value of net assets
acquired of approximately $9,217,000 will be amortized on the straight-line
method over 20 years. The unaudited consolidated results of operations on a
pro forma basis as if the Company had sold 4,025,000 shares of common stock for
$12 per share, repaid short and long-term debt (except for the Spring
acquisition subordinated note), redeemed all outstanding shares of preferred
stock and purchased the Acquired Businesses on January 1, 1994 are as follows:
